A scant couple hundred thousand more brain cells and we’ll be there.

Cheap shot, I’ve never dared a soap opera myself.

Murderbot.

Murrrderbooooot.

800,000 brain cells played pong.

Creepy.

That’s murderbot’s ancestor.

Agreee

Is this one worth reading?

50% of the world’s population “becomes the new 1%”.

Nooope.

Probably a cooler picture than Stanhope appreciates, but:

I can agree that there’s been an extremely minuscule amount of justifiable war in an endless number of wars.

This is based as far as I can tell.

It’s a bummer how killing strangers for your government is glorified.

Aw man, a gun stick

Digital IDs that Protect Privacy.

Protection From Digital ID Corruption.

Anything concise that conveys a couple core points

A great point in dire need of a better title.

It doesn’t look like the picture is loading and there’s no link.

Sounds cool though

I mentioned it that there are a bunch of methods but I just mentioned the two that helped me the most.

Wanted to keep things simple.

I didn’t like the alarm one. That in particular, seems like it would mess with my head more since it’s disrupting sleep.

And I didn’t notice any difference when I used it.

There were a bunch of methods I tried, but most ranged from impractical to irritating, I didn’t want it to disrupt my life too much.

The dream journaling and reality testing was simple and resulted in fairly rapid awareness of my dreams.

That does sound tough, not being able to distinguish dreams from reality.

I had a really cool one where I was like ninja flipping around a mall sliding down jumping off escalator handrails fighting these zombie dogs.

That was pretty rad.

That’s fine.

Sorry I don’t understand your question.

You mean you are like that and is that okay?

That’s fine.

If you are aware the entire time, then you are lucid dreaming and you can start to control your environment.

Is that what you mean?

Hempseed porridge?

Okay.

Does that taste Good?

Cuz quinoa tastes good and you can add it oyster sauce and hot sauce and all this good stuff without contradicting flavor profiles.

I grew up with freezer bags of cooked rice from my parents.

Seems a little crazy considering how easy and quick it is to cook rice.

I wonder what the advantages are.

The only one I know of is that if you want to cook fried rice, it’s way better if you have it in the fridge overnight because it dries out a little and then it soaks up all the flavors when you cook it the next day.

Ah, you’re right.

Wow, so quinoa is the remaining champion.

So long, beans. Pretty close though.

Interesting, what does rice have that beans don’t?

I’ve always understood beans to be one of the very few foods that include everything.

Fat, protein, carbs, all the vitamins

They don’t? Are you sure?

I feel like beans are one of the few foods that do include all the nutrients you need.

It’s like them and quinoa.

There are any number of methods, but the goal is being aware that you are in a dream.

The methods I found most effective were dream journaling and reality testing.

Everyday, you record whatever concrete information you definitely remember happening in the dream, even if it’s just a red t-shirt someone was wearing for example.

Write it down somewhere, journal or notepad.

Very rapidly, you’ll begin remembering more and more of your dreams.

That helps you recognize a dream state.

The other thing I did is reality testing, when you make sure you’re awake.

So I will basically wave a hand or a couple fingers every now and then during the day and try to move something with my mind.

And then one day I was in my garage and as a reality rest, I telekinetically lifted the hood on my car.

And when the hood lifted, I realized “oh, I’m dreaming.”

Once you’re aware, the most important thing is to stay calm and not make drastic changes. Just tried to influence what you can within the context of the dream, and then you get better and better at it.
